About Us

Our projects:

We are focusing on aspects relevant for Autism Spectrum Disorder and the refinement of techniques. If you have any question or need a more detailed/scientific description, do not hesitate to contact us.

Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Neurodevelopmental disorders can be very pervasive and include conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

We are trying to identify alterations that lead to this conditions and how to potentially treat them.

Neuroimmunology

Immune alterations are one of the main features of neurodevelopmental disorders and scientists don't know exactly why.

In our lab, we are exploring the complex interface between the Neurosciences and Immunology.

Improvements in behavioural analysis

In order to understand how some conditions change behaviour and to test whether drugs would be useful and safe, we need to use animals in research.

We work to develop more efficient and ethical approaches for this analysis.
